Lighting Question

[bellabo]

Hello ev1:
It has been awhile since I been here. Still gathering equipment for a 90 gal. reef and fish tank. Looking into buying medal halide lighting. Concerned about the heat output. My question is about L.E.D. lighting. What is the lumens comparison between the two? Also what happened to the classified section?
On a recent trip to Guam, it was awesome to snorkel with the aqua life. Even the lingering Baracuda.

Thanks for any advice.

I really like my 250w MH and two 65w PC
MH on for six hours and PC on for Ten hours
If I had T5s I would use them
Temps up in the 80s so I would use a chiller for the summer

leds are sweeeeet but still very very pricey. if u want somethin other than mh go with t5s. and they took the classifieds off cause people were buying from others rather than swf

Looking at prices, T5's will be the way to go.
Never even set up my 90g yet and already dreaming of a 210g plus. What wrong with me?
